I am running Kubuntu 9.04-64bit (just did an upgrade and all appears good so far - it did take several restarts to get all the upgrade downloaded due, I'm sure, to overloaded servers). My wife uses a miniMac (older PPC chip). We share a mail account at Shaw. I have my KMail set up to leave the mail on the server for seven days and her Mac mail is set up to remove mail when downloaded. This problem started under Kubuntu 8.10, probably KDE 4.1 is a better starting point, and has continued under KDE 4.2.2. My wife's mail is fine, it does just what you'd expect. My KMail appears to run normal, but about twice or three times a week it re-downloads all the old mail that's hanging around the server. Thus I end up with a couple of hundred duplicate messages. It's not serious, but it is irritating. Because nothing happens like this on the Mac I am assuming it's related to KDE or KMail? Did something change in KMail or did Shaw change something or do I have a bad set of preferences? Maybe I should take the 7 day delay off the leave mail on the server setting? Any ideas?
